In this episode, Bishop Henry Joseph shares how two words—“It’s time”—transformed his life from gangs, addiction, and homelessness to healing, reconciliation, and mission. From Compton and Skid Row to Malawi and back to Jackson, Henry recounts his journey of radical obedience, global ministry, and building a multiracial church rooted in the gospel. Hear how faith carried him through loss, recovery, and calling—and why Jesus remains the center of true reconciliation.
